This is one of the first recordings I made that I was genuinely happy about and satisfied with. Like all my recordings, there's definitely stuff I'd change about it (namely the drums and drum tones) but I love the composition itself.

I wrote this one years ago but didn't record it until recently. The piano notes in the middle are probably my favorite notes in all my songs.

I wrote this song using a looping pedal. Pretty fun song to play. Maybe one day I'll revisit and elaborate on it a bit.

A light, kind of bouncy jam. Lots of production mistakes but still enjoyable.

I wanted to write an electronica type song, and I came up with this organ riff and took it from there. I really like the interplay between the bass, organ, and strings during the chorus. One of my favorites.

I like the way this song builds and goes on a journey.

This is probably my favorite song of mine. Somewhat long, but I think it flows real well and builds in each section.

These are tiny little pieces for orchestra.. I will be uploading all of them, this one is the first

I have many musical influences, one of which is that thick Brian Wilson / Beach Boys harmony. While my songwriting is seldom as sunlit and carefree as his, this still should be considered a respectful homage.

A fable of the old west, the sins of the father cast on the shoulders of the son.
